Mobile ERROR "VideoBackgroundConfig with screen size of zero received"

Hello,

 

I am having issues with viewing my projects on mobile devices. The HoloLens is working fine however. With my iPhone, after scanning the thingmark the option to display the experience pops up. Once I click on it the display area goes white & nothing happens. I checked the log file (please see attached) and the only error I could find said the following:

ThingBrowser[559:78834] ERROR/AR(559) 2019-05-25 10:51:37: VideoBackgroundConfig with screen size of zero received, skipping config step

 

I don't know why this would happen, since under info I have the Minimum Screen Width set to Phone (320dp).

I've tried to eliminate all possible sources of errors by reducing the size of my project to just a thingmark and a simple pvz, but that hasn't helped.

 

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks,

Wes

@Wes_Tomer  I believe the issue here was occurring while running the Experience Service as a service. Currently, there is no support for running the ES as a service. Recommend and suggest using the .bat file to avoid any issues. The same has been documented in our Knowledgebase article for reference - https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS308438

 

In case this resolved your issue then accept as the designated solution for the benefit of other Community members who may have the same question.

Hi dupatel,

 

Yes, this is correct -- I figured that the wider community might have experienced the same issue and/ or benefit from hearing the solution once it is found. Is it best that I not do this? If so, I'm sorry - the moderator may remove this thread.

 

Also, have you found a solution?

Thank you for assisting,

Wes
